Using Uber & Lyft to Get to the Los Angeles & Long Beach Cruise Ports

In a region that’s almost as famous for its car culture as it is for Hollywood, there has been a huge change in how people get around Los Angeles… and it’s great news for cruise passengers.

Years ago, your options to getting to the cruise ports in Los Angeles or Long Beach were to catch a taxi or schedule a private car. Today you can use a rideshare service. Namely: Uber and Lyft.

If you’re not familiar with these companies, the premise is simple. Drivers are everyday people, driving their personal automobiles (cars have to be in good condition and relatively new). Riders use an app on their smartphone to schedule a ride, make the payment, and rate their driver.

Drivers love it because it allows them to earn extra cash on their own schedule. Riders love it because it is fast to catch a ride from anywhere (literally thousands of drivers are in LA), and it is often much cheaper than a traditional cab.

Uber & Lyft Availability to the Cruise Port

Both Uber and Lyft are available throughout southern California. That means no matter where you are, you can catch a ride. This includes area airports such as Los Angeles International (LAX) and Long Beach Airport (LGB).

The pictures below show the service areas for the rideshare programs. As you can see, both operate in the entire region. And don’t worry if you are traveling from one shaded region to another. Rides can travel anywhere in the area.

Estimated Fares to the Port of Los Angeles and Long Beach

So how much does it cost to take an Uber or Lyft to the Los Angeles and Long Beach cruise ships?

To give you an idea of how much Uber or Lyft would cost, we’ve rounded up some estimated fares between popular pickup locations and the cruise ports. We’ve also compared the fares to the cost of a taxi, based on searches from TaxiFareFinder.com

Keep in mind that the fares listed above are for one car, not per person. Regular Uber and Lyft are designed for up to four people, but remember to consider your luggage when going to the port. (For that reason, we suggest three to a car.)

If your entire group can’t fit into a small four-door sedan, then we suggest ordering an “XL” ride or going with two separate cars. Otherwise you might not all be able to fit. We’d suggest that three adults with luggage should fit fine in a regular Uber/Lyft. 

Catching Uber/Lyft From Los Angeles Airports to the Cruise Ship

Most importantly, Uber and Lyft operate at all the airports in the area, including Los Angeles International (LAX), Ontario International Airport (ONT), John Wayne Airport (SNA), Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR), and Long Beach Airport (LGB).

Depending on where you fly into, expect it to take about 30 minutes to over an hour to get to the cruise ship from the airport. Below are estimated times for normal traffic.

Ride Times to Port of LA | Port of Long Beach:

• Los Angeles International (LAX): 35 minutes | 40 minutes
• Ontario International Airport (ONT): 70 minutes | 70 minutes
• John Wayne Airport (SNA): 50 min | 45 minutes
• Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR): 70 minutes | 70 minutes
• Long Beach Airport (LBG): 25 min | 20 min

Note on Catching Uber or Lyft From Los Angeles International (LAX)

While you can catch a ride from all major airports in the area, LAX has a little different pick-up procedure than you might be used to.

Because of the airport’s size, congestion is a major issue. That’s why the airport has put in a special spot for catching Uber and Lyft called “LAX-it” (pronounced L-A-Exit). Put simply, you’ll catch a shuttle or walk to a dedicated lot for ridesharing and taxis.

By moving the pick-up area for rides to a separate lot, the hope is that it will help to alleviate some of the airport’s notoriously bad traffic. Depending on which terminal you arrive, it can take about 10-15 minutes to take the shuttle or walk to the LAX-it lot. To take the free shuttle, you simply look for the LAX-it sign at the lower level of arrivals.

You’ll need 2-3 rides. It’s likely easiest to simply have a couple of people call a ride at the same time and split up when the cars arrive. Not sure if Uber/Lyft has some sort of solution on their app for this type of situation.

LAX has a new lot where Uber/Lyft pick up called LAX-It. Both of the services will drop you off at the port.

It is now August, 2019. Are the Lyft and Uber fares, above, still valid?

Rates are now a little bit higher — $5-10 in most cases.

When disembarking at the World Cruise Port, is there a specific place to wait after you’ve placed your Uber/Lyft order?

Trans mayor whines about being ‘bullied’ out of office despite rampant crime, homelessness.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

A California mayor who came out as transgender after being elected to office is facing a recall vote — blaming it on transphobic “bullies” despite outrage over rampant homelessness and crime.

Raúl Ureña, 26, was elected mayor of the border town of Calexico with 70% of the vote in 2020 — before coming out as transgender and gender fluid following her re-election victory in 2022, the Los Angeles Times reports.

The mayor — who accepts “all the pronouns,” with a preference for “she” — went from office attire of suit and pants for a penchant for low-cut dresses showing off a still-hairy chest, proudly saying she looks “sexy as hell” in office.

While turning heads with the transformation, Ureña also sparked backlash as crime ran rampant in the border town and homeless encampments sprang up in the downtown — with feces left on the sidewalks.

The mayor and her and key ally City Councilman Gilberto Manzanarez face a recall vote Tuesday for leaving the downtown a crime-ridden eyesore.

The petition claims the mayor “has proven poor leadership with open and public indecency and intoxication shared on social media with absolute reckless disregard for accountability towards families with children,” the LA Times points out.

However, Ureña blames it on “tried and tested, predictable transphobia.”

Ureña noted that many of her detractors regularly share photos of her and call her scandalous, though she thinks she looks “sexy as hell” in the pictures.

The effort to remove her also began with one woman, Rebecca Lemon, who was later caught on video screaming at Ureña’s father that she is “not a daughter, he’s a son!”

“He’s not a woman! He’s not a woman!” she cried out as she was seen being escorted away by police.

Ureña said Lemon’s actions that day were illegal, unlawful and “something you don’t do to a human being,” Ureña told the Daily Mail , adding that she thinks Lemon “is a big bully.”

“She barks like a bulldog and is bigger than me, but I’m not afraid,” she said.

“I can’t be afraid of those kinds of incidents. I have a particularly difficult city to govern.”

Councilman Manzanarez also agreed that the recall effort is the result of transphobia, claimed that constituents have called the mayor slurs.

“We’re a city where a lot of our populations are señoras who are Catholic,” he explained.

“Mostly the town is socially conservative.”

But former Calexico Mayor Maritz Hurtado, who is leading the campaign to oust Ureña and Manzanarez, said supporters of the recall vote just want to hold them accountable for their decisions — which she claims left the downtown a crime-ridden eyesore.

“We’re losing business because people do not want to come here because it’s disgusting,”Hurtado, 58, told the LA Times.

She said Ureña and Manzanarez have dismissed business leaders’ concerns, and are disrespectful to police.

“They are some of the biggest supporters of Black Lives Matter in Imperial County,” she told the LA Times.

“You guys are anti-police? We are a border city. You don’t belong here.”

Ureña countered that Hurtado, who served on the City Council from 2010 through 2018, is the one to blame for the city’s problems.

“It’s as simple as power,” Ureña said.

“We’ve de-established a lot of establishment and status quo interests ingrained in the city for many decades.”
